Third Conference of the Italian Association of Agricultural and Applied Economics

FEEDING THE PLANET AND GREENING THE AGRICULTURE:

CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITY FOR THE BIO-ECONOMY

Nucleo Ricerca Desertificazione

General Programme

Pre-Conference Background Desertification, land degradation, drought are reported to be increasing in many part of world, affecting agricultural productivity and the ecosystems ability to provide services. Also the global perception of natural resource degradation has increased because of climate change and rising food and energy prices. Although climate change has attracted attention and investments, policy actions have not been enough to effectively prevent desertification or mitigate land degradation and drought. One reason for inadequate action by policymakers may be the limited knowledge of the costs of global land degradation and its underlying causes. The pre-conference session will try to shed light on the economic and biological implications of desertification, land degradation and drought in an attempt to analyse underlying causes and discuss possible strategies for taking action to prevent and mitigate land degradation.

Land degradation through the lens of climate change adaptation and mitigation: new impetus for dealing with an old problem? LESLIE LIPPER (ESA Division, FAO, Rome)

Conclusions: Giuseppe Enne (President NRD Scientific Committee, University of Sassari)

Conference Background Growing demand for food, feed and fuel as well as concerns about environmental degradation, climate change, food security and food safety have brought back agriculture, food and nutrition issues at the top of policy agenda. Recent years have been featuring increased price and yield volatility and any sort of risks (from environmental to economic, political and institutional) that have been jeopardizing the livelihood and threatening the well-being of hundreds of millions of people.

This calls for effective strategies of risk management that will make individuals, household, communities, and states more resilient. The bio-economy can play a key role in pursuing this objective. Indeed, a sustainable bio-economy could satisfy food security and energy needs while ensuring a sustainable use of resources, biodiversity and environmental protection. Innovations in the non-food bio-industries are also gaining momentum to accommodate the above-mentioned changes.

The Third AIEAA Conference aims at addressing the gap in the knowledge base needed to understand the changes in interactions between the economy, society and the environment and at identifying policies, methods and tools to efficiently tackle the above-mentioned challenges.
